Notes

According to the biography of Khyungpo Neljor, they met in Veṇuvana, "at the south", during the second trip of Khyungpo Neljor to India. Maitripa transmitted him: phyag rgya chen po('i rtsa rgyud) rab tu mi gnas pa ... rgyud lnga / do ha / phyag rgya chen po dag pa ye shes / sku gsum lam khyer / dgyes rdor, mtshan brjod ... rgyud, sgrub thabs.
Later, in a charnel ground named Bhiksha, in Kosala (ko sa la b+hi k+Sha'i dur khrod chen po, bhikṣā?), Maitripa transmitted the practice of Chadrupa (See the story of the transmission).

བླ་མ་མཻ་ཏྲི་པ་ལྷོ་ཕྱོགས་འོད་མའི་ཚལ་ན་བཞུགས་པ་ལ། ཕྱག་རྒྱ་ཆེན་པོ་རབ་ཏུ་མི་གནས་པ་ལ་སོགས་པའི་རྒྱུད་ལྔ་དང་། དོ་ཧ་དང་། ཕྱག་རྒྱ་ཆེན་པོ་དག་པ་ཡེ་ཤེས་དང་། སྐུ་གསུམ་ལམ་ཁྱེར་ལ་སོགས་པའི་གདམས་ངག་མང་དུ་ཞུས། ཡང་དགྱེས་རྡོར་དང་མཚན་བརྗོད་ལ་སོགས་རྒྱུད་སྒྲུབ་ཐབས་མང་དུ་ཞུས།

"In the South, in the Bamboo Grove (veṇuvana, near rājagṛha), the master Maitrīpa transmitted to me five tantras, including the (root-tantra) of Mahâmudrâ (entitled) The Completely Non-Dwelling (previously received from Kor Nirupa); some dohās; The Pure Wisdom of Mahāmudrā (?) and many oral instructions, including The Integration of the Three Kāyas on the Path (See topic). I also received many tantras and sādhanas, including those of Hevajra (previously received from Dha Chenpo) and The recitation of the names (mañjuśrīnāmasamgīti, Toh 360, previously received from Kor Nirupa and Dorjé Denpa)."
